Generally discussed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for scheduling node access to a shared resource. A method can include determining a position assignment for each of a plurality of nodes to create a ring schedule, the ring schedule defining time frames in which each node of the plurality of nodes has access to a resource that is shared among the plurality of nodes, the ring schedule comprising a plurality of epochs, and each of the plurality of epochs comprising a plurality of positions that define a time at which access to the resource begins, each of a plurality of nodes including a position assignment each epoch, and updating the ring schedule including permuting positions of the ring schedule with the position assignment remaining static or changing at least one position assignment in an epoch of the plurality of epochs.

Systems and methods for scheduling of a shared resource

Embodiments for providing for dissemination of packets in a network performing distributed beamforming are generally described herein. In some embodiments, distributing packets from nodes in a squad local area network using a first waveform to beamforming nodes, providing scheduling to a long link interface for delivering a stream of packets free of scheduling conflict and distributing a copy of the packets from a long link interface based on the provided scheduling and using a second waveform, the first waveform being different from the second waveform.
